What the hell Action Poker! I take the night off work for this WPS turny just to have it cancelled right at start time due to not being enough players! Whos fault is that Maybe if you guys emailed the top 200 and let them know then you would have had enough not to mention that I had to let LIVE know of 2 screw ups on the WPS main page. Makes you wonder who is running this show. I think io am going to a different site, maybe one that has turnys.

Yeah, action poker has little traffic, so most tourneys, specially the big buy in ones are really empty! haha... They should do more publicity or something because not enough people for tourneys is not really good...

Just to add insult here is the response i got from and email
Dear member,
Thank you so much for your email.
The reason of this Freeroll being canceled is because it didn't reached the min amount of players registered in order to start (40 players). This freeroll was reserved ONLY for the players joining the WPS LeaderBoard, there are only 82 players in the LeaderBoard at the moment as we just launched this promotion. Feel free to pay attention at the future tournaments will be offering for the WPS Promotion.
We also have our 24/7 Live Help Chat Support, ready to assist you with any queries.

yes it sux, why put a limit on min 40 players for a freeroll?? We had to earn our seat but now we get no reward? I have withdrawn my bankroll and tought this freeroll would be a good opportunity to start all over at action, i guess not

lol ok guess what has happend now ??
Now when you go to the leaderboard page it says only top 50 players,( platinum) get to play!! I am in the plat. but this is truly bs as the ones who could have played before and did not lose not to mention that we did not get enough to begin with soo........... WHERE ARE WE NOW?? I am betting that there will be no turnys and this is just a waste of time.
WHERE IS SHAUN MAYBE HE CAN ANSWER THIS?
------------ In as fast as i posted this now board has changed again.

Yeah i contacted them about 2 hours before the tournament asking them to lower the min players to 20. I had to take off work to play also so i wasnt happy.all the players should have been emailed. Also they told me if i didnt make the leaderboard this week i loose the buy in i think they should of just pre registered every one! Seems like we play so many hands to get on this leader board for nothing...... Whats the point? I also asked about the Web page about the Platinum players representing there country around the world.......... they didnt know any thing about it. LOL there own promo and they dont know

Hi Guys
I have only just seen this thread as I have been flying from CR to the UK, this is the first time I have heard anything about a problem WPS I will contact the tem back at the office and update the thread later today.
